by A Nashville Democrat in the Tennessee
state senate recently earned a higher rating from a national
conservative organization than one of her Republican colleagues.
Sen.
Thelma Harper, D-Nashville, earned a 79 percent rating from the
American Conservative Union, a national advocacy organization that
typically helps elect Republicans. The ACU gave state Sen. Steve
Dickerson, R-Nashville, a 78 percent rating. (link)
My Comment: Congratulations Thelma Harper for being a common sense Democrat, maybe the last of a breed, who puts her constituents and her country ahead of her party. I have not looked at the details of the ACU scoring and don't know where Dickerson may have fallen short of the ACU's standards but I am not concerned. I know Steve Dickerson to be a thoughtful conservative who reflects the views and values of his constituents.
